PROPERTY LOSSES

If you have a property loss, it is important that you make every effort to prevent further damage to your property.

Please wait until you have been contacted by an adjuster before tearing down or initiating any repairs to your property. If repairs are needed immediately to prevent further loss, please take photos of the damage.

BE PREPARED BEFORE A LOSS

Maintaining a home inventory is a very useful tool to have in case of a loss. Wherever possible, keep documents to prove value of items, such as photos, invoices, receipts etc.

This excel spreadsheet may be a useful tool for assisting you in preparing an inventory of your personal belongings.

Also, it is helpful to have a video or pictures of your dwelling contents, should you ever need to replace damaged items.

If police have been contacted, find out the Officer’s name, badge number and the occurrence number or report number.
